Only. a few posts on this web board, and you've gone from groveling for answers, with **** poor grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization, with an attitude of laziness and entitlement, declaring your desire to get the most out of the least qualification you can possibly offer, to snarky, smart-mouthed, sarcastic, and still wrong and ignorant. You're doing well so far.

I said nothing about me having a bachelor degree, but you're attacking me because of importance I have assigned such a degree? I offered nothing regarding my education, mate, nor did I state that reading comprehension is a function of a degree. You clearly have a chip on your shoulder about a degree. You're unable to respond in this thread, apparently, and I'll address any responses you've made elsewhere...in the appropriate venue.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, I asked you questions, rather than make assumptions about your meaning, intent, desire, or motivation. I asked you to expand on what you're asking, in order to better serve you, as your questions were open ended, non-specific, and unclear. You wholly failed to answer a single one, but instead snapped back with sarcastic attacks on the unspoken and unsaid, with assumptions and insults. You came here asking the question, new with no posting history or experience, and posters have attempted to serve you, provide answers and help. Your response is to bite the hand that feeds you. So be it. Other posters have noted also that your questions don't provide enough information to properly answer; you've ignored them, too.

Generally we look at ACMI companies such as cargo operators, the big two cargo operators, regionals, low cost carriers, legacies, etc. When you say "the big airlines," you're not very specific. Hence, posters (including me) have asked for clarification. Rather than provide it, you chose to attack those attempting to help you.

You will do well in your career. That chip on your shoulder is not just sitting there; it's sitting atop a festering infection, and you're hellbent on sharing it with the world. Take an early hint: it paints a picture of you. So far, it's not good. Lose the attitude.

i am not going to read your temper tantrum. tl;dr?

JohnBurke

Won't read, or can't read? Never mind, it's rhetorical. You still can't complete a sentence in English, or speak like an adult; you are still unable and unwilling to contribute to your own thread or clarify your request.

Wow… who’s the one throwing the tantrum here? Holy geeze.
And still, you have yet to answer anyone’s attempt to help answer your questions by providing additional information.

I wait by my computer with bated breath for your attack on me now. Good luck.

enter the thread immediately seething with rage, why would i engage?

noshepherd

i'm not the one writing paragraphs complaining about a particular individual. just asked a simple, general question with a fairly simple answer- one i've gotten elsewhere by now by the way, from people less conceited about their career and.... capitalizing letters on the internet?

as for "attacks", i've just simply deflected the attempts at flaming from one (1) individual trying to yell at me in two threads. everyone else has been pretty normal about it, giving probing answers; thankfully the bulk of the population are like those guys.

mind you, this guy's *FIRST* interaction with me was in the silver airways thread, where he lobbed presumptions and attacks at me. why would i respect that?

You're not going to get any help here. Create a new username and try again. Next time do a cursory amount of research before asking naive questions.

No. There is nothing stopping you from getting a degree once you are flying for a Regional. You should have plenty of time to get some coursework done during the overnights and airport sits.

ImSoSuss

That is not going to last forever. It is pretty naive to assume this especially if you haven't even started training yet and are years from being competitive for a Legacy.

Look at the projected shortage numbers, unless there’s another retirement age increase it’s going to be 10 years of shortage at least. The dynamic of Legacy pilot hiring is changing as the Military produces less fixed wing aviators each year so the reality is probably going to be that the college degree is going to become less and less of an expectation (written or not). I remember discussions 5-10 years ago where guys were contemplating getting a masters degree for a hopeful tie-breaker/ additional points to get hired and recently the legacies have been hiring high school educated helicopter pilots who have done 12-18 months at a regional/ULCC feeder. The dynamic has certainly changed and without a supply surplus with regard to pilots, it’s not likely to change back.
